Figure 8-39 Vertical color Binning by 2
When the horizontal Binning factor and the vertical Binning factor are both set to 2, the camera combines
the adjacent 4 sub-pixels of the same color according to the corresponding positions, and outputs the
combined pixel values as one sub-pixel.

Figure 8-40 Horizontal and vertical color Binning by 2×2
On monochrome cameras, the camera combines (sums or averages) the pixel values of directly adjacent
pixels:

Binning Factors
Two types of Binning are available: horizontal Binning and vertical Binning. You can set the Binning factor
in one or two directions.
Horizontal Binning is the processing of pixels in adjacent rows.
Vertical Binning is the processing of pixels in adjacent columns.
Binning factor 1: Disable Binning.
Binning factor 2, 4: Indicate the number of rows or columns to be processed.
For example, the horizontal Binning factor 2 indicates that the Binning is enabled in the horizontal direction,
and the pixels of two adjacent rows are processed.
Binning Modes
The Binning mode defines how pixels are combined when Binning is enabled. Two types of the Binning
mode are available: Sum and Average.
